Chapter 2087 get through the network
In Australia, Kirin Communications purchased their optus communications company for US$23 million as early as October last year.
Optus has not yet developed into Australia's number one communications company, but their business network has still been established, and its main telephone business also accounts for one-third of Australia's users.
Although Australia has a population of more than 30 million and one-third of its users is less than 4 million, if the population is too high, the price will not be as low as US$23 million.
What's more, Yin Jun bought this company not to make money in landlines, but to the emerging mobile phone business.
From the first time of buying the company, it signed a mobile network agreement with Kirin Communications Company in Xiangjiang.
The two companies cooperate to develop technology and raw materials and build networks; on the other hand, they produce territories and various review and supervision, etc., and work together to build Australian mobile networks.
Australians are still very welcome to this.
They saw the bustling mobile phones in the United States, Japan, Hong Kong and other places, and saw the changes in communication methods and the changes in people's lives.
Australians who have always been accustomed to enjoying each other, of course, also hope that they can use their mobile phones freely.
Therefore, they gave the green light to build mobile networks.
However, the company that has renamed Optus to Kirin Communications, the first step in the construction of mobile phone network was not in the southeast of Sydney, but in Western Australia to the west.
This makes Western Australia very satisfied.
They think that Kirin Group has indeed not forgotten its roots. Whenever there is a good thing, they will think of their old friends, and Western Australia is the priority.
Don't underestimate the order of this order.
Western Australia has always been looked down upon by the East. Apart from mineral resources, people in Sydney and other places think they have no advantages at all and regard them as a group of rude and old-fashioned.
This made Western Australia not very satisfied, but the economy was not as good as the southeast, so there was no way to refute it.
Now Qilin Group not only opened Wankang Company here, but also took over the basic municipal services of the entire Western Australia, but also detected two super-large iron ore, ready to be produced and transported in large quantities immediately.
From the perspective of Western Australia, Kirin Mining Company's approach can not only significantly increase their income, but also benefit the interests of many people. This is actually a good thing.
In other words, Qilin Mining Company has recruited too many Chinese people, which makes them feel a little inappropriate.
But overall, the cooperation between the two parties is still very positive and full of kindness.
Kirin Group attaches importance to Western Australia and has laid the first mobile base station in Western Australia. In the eyes of countless Western Australians, this is what friends do.
So Kirin Group became more popular in Western Australia.
When Western Australia officially launched mobile communication services in October, more than 300,000 people applied and paid the package fee.
This number is not much different from the entire Xiangjiang mobile phone user.
You know, Xiangjiang's mobile phone business has started three years ago, and now it has only accumulated 300,000 yuan. Western Australia actually has this number from the beginning!?
And the total number of residents in Western Australia is only less than 3 million!
There are nearly 7 million people in Xiangjiang!!
But things can't be looked at so simply, because the first thing is that when Xiangjiang started doing mobile phone business, it was the world's first city, so of course the public's acceptance was not high.
The mobile phone business has been developing for three years. Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and the United States have been used one after another. People in Western Australia have seen the benefits of mobile phones changing their lives, and of course more people can accept it.
The second point is that with the development of various technologies and the continuous update of various devices, the mobile phone business expenses have gradually decreased.
Now the fees in Hong Kong have dropped a lot. People in Western Australia earn Australian dollars, and the people are generally rich, so the pressure is even less.
Kirin Communications is also very conscientious in Western Australia, and does not add fees just because they are foreigners.
In fact, Yin Jun wanted to do this, but considering that Australia is the mineral resource base of Kirin Group in the future, it is not easy to do things so well.
As a result, Qilin Communications Company received praise from everyone and felt that they were very conscientious.
Sending workers to work in foreign countries cannot use many people to do work at the same time, which is not conducive to the utilization of manual efficiency.
So in July, when Western Australia started debugging, workers arrived in Sydney to build a communication base, and expected to complete the work around Greater Sydney in December.
As for opening Melbourne and other major residential areas in Australia, it may have to wait until the end of next year.
As another base of Kirin Communications Company, even if they only have more than 30 million people, early investment is necessary.
However, Yin Jun was still a little helpless when he saw the expenses and income.
Now Xiangjiang has gradually entered a profit period. With these hard years of hard operation, all the early costs have been recovered.
But Western Australia has tens of thousands of times the area of Xiangjiang. Even in many places, many places are places where no one lives, the scope of the Qilin Communications Company is paved by more than 1 million square kilometers.
Within this area, it is estimated that there are only about 2 million users, so the investment in infrastructure is really a huge loss.
It is expected that the Australian branch of Kirin Communications Company in the 1985 fiscal year will suffer a loss of more than US$500 million.
Total next year and the year after, there will be another loss of 500 million US dollars.
At least five years later, the entire mobile phone user base will have more than 5 million before it can slowly stop the loss.
After careful calculation, Kirin Group's overall investment in Australia must be at least 5 billion US dollars.
Since Japan and China have been constantly making money, but in Australia, if you want to start making money, you may have to wait.
But Yin Jun actually didn't care much.
The interests of Western Australia can last for 50 years or even longer in the future.
No matter what kind of online e-commerce you have developed in the future, the most important mineral resource will still be the foundation of a company and will never be replaced.
As long as these mineral resources are available, no matter how in the Qilin Group is, it is possible to turn around.
After letting go of business matters, Yin Jun looked at other reports from the company.
When "Forrest Gump" continued to occupy the mainstream film market in North America, there was actually a relatively special film that was also conquering the Qilin Group.
This is Yu Rentai's second work in Hollywood, "Scream".
"Scream" is still a horror film produced at a low cost. Compared with "The Ghost Boy Bride" more focused on the atmosphere, it is very bloody and horrible.
But the horror of "Scream" is different from the high IQ and suspense atmosphere of "Saw".
"Scream" attracts the audience with very bloody and intuitive killing and the sense of horror that keeps coming.
It is a very simple, yet refreshing authentic horror movie.
The story of this horror killer that happened in the town is still part of the serial killer series. The kind of horror that everyone may be killed next, and the extremely bloody scenes are definitely the favorite of heavy-tasting horror movie enthusiasts.
As a result, although "Forrest Gump" has fully dominated the film market, people who specialize in horror films have firmly controlled less than 800 cinemas and 1,200 screens.
Since its release for three weeks, "Scream" has maintained an attendance rate of more than 50% on average for each of these 1,500 screens with a very good reputation and authentic and heavy taste. This is a very powerful situation.
Even "Forrest Gump" did not maintain a 50% attendance rate in the third week of its release.
Of course, this is related to the continuous expansion of "Forrest Gump"'s release, which finally reached more than 3,000 screens.
"Scream" has good luck this year. "Saw" has been suspended for a year, which can prevent the audience from feeling tired of watching the movie.
"The Bride of the Ghost Baby", which shined last year, was directed by Yu Rentai himself, so there is no sequel this year.
"Scream", which has no strong opponent, also won an astonishing box office of US$100 million in the first three weeks.
Connecting Europe, South America, Australia and Japan and South Korea, the total box office reached 180 million US dollars.
Several magazines in North America are expected to have an overall box office of around 250 million US dollars.
But as we all know, the big part of making money in horror movies lies in TV copyright and video tape copyright.
Horror movie lovers have a hobby of collecting classic horror movies.
Such a popular horror film can conservatively bring 20 million US dollars of net profit to Lianyi Film Company.
Based on the production cost of "Scream" is only 20 million US dollars, another classic of Lianyi Film Company that makes profits of big profits appeared!
Yu Rentai's directorial talent has been proven again.
He is now in Hollywood and has become a director of the Hong Kong major who can be compared with Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi.
It's just that in terms of qualifications and the breadth of making movies, he is a little worse than the two people behind him.
Many film companies, especially those small and medium-sized film companies, have actively begun to attract people.
Although "Screaming" and "The Bride of the Ghost Baby" are both Yin Jun's screenwriters, there is no problem with letting Yu Rentai make some follow-up movies, and it's okay to have no good scripts!
Who doesn’t like movies that are small and big?
But Yu Rentai still refused firmly.
It’s not that Qilin Group is restricting him. Even Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi have directed two or three movies outside, so Yu Rentai has no problem.
But he still has a third movie to be produced, so he refused first.
Yin Jun was very satisfied with his attitude.
After all, they are all Chinese, and they know what long-term interests are and what small profits are in front of them!
